1. WHAT IS A CLASSIC ITALIAN TIRAMISU?

Correctly done, a classic tiramisù can be transcendent. A creamy dessert of espressosoaked ladyfingers surrounded by rich mascarpone cheese, tiramisù relies heavily on the quality of its ingredients, please you dont need to buy Tiramisu at Costco, is very easy prepare it. If you do not have a barista setup at home, pick up the espresso at a local coffee shop, or use strongly brewed coffee. For the ladyfingers, you can find varieties from soft and spongy too hard and crunchy. Both kinds will work here, but if youre using the soft sticks to a light brushing of espresso coffee instead of a deep dip. My ladyfingers brand for a classic tiramisu is this. Report from The NYTimes.

2. HOW TO MAKE A CLASSIC ITALIAN TIRAMISU WITH RAW EGGS

  1. To make the Mascarpone cream we are going to use two containers since it is made in two parts and then they are mixed.
  2. In the first container we assemble the yolks with the sugar (with only half, 60 grams) we mix it with a whisk until we have a homogeneous mixture, then we add the Mascarpone cheese until there are no lumps.
  3. In the second bowl we introduce the egg whites and the remaining sugar and we make it stiff. We can add a pinch of salt so that the egg whites do not go down.
  4. Once we have the two mixtures, we put the first cream, the Mascarpone cream, in the bowl with the egg whites until stiff; We will mix them little by little with enveloping movements so that the mixture does not fall, until we get a homogeneous mixture to appear, and we will have our mascarpone cheese cream.
  5. Now is the time to assemble the tiramisu. It is best to use a round removable round cake pan or rectangular baking pan with high walls. We put a cream base in the background.
  6. We put a layer of biscuits soaked in coffee. Be careful that they dont get too wet because they can spoil the tiramisu. It is better to put less soaked because then it will take the moisture from the mascarpone cream.
  7. After the first layer of biscuits soaked in coffee, we put another layer of mascarpone cheese. We repeat this process until we fill the baking pan.
  8. Let rest in the fridge for at least 6 hours.
